JIHADIS BUTCHERED 5 RABBIS: Celebrated in News as the ‘Exemplified Meaning of Heroism’

These are Israel’s “peace partners.” There can never be peace, because of the Islamic texts and teachings that call for genocide of the Jews. The very existence of Israel is deeply offensive and humiliating to Muslims. “Palestinianism” is a marketing tool, a kind of “branding” of Islamic Jew-hatred in order to appeal the support of a gullible West. And it worked.

Yesterday alone, there was a series of murderous Islamic attacks on the Jews in Israel. The media didn’t even so much as remark on them.

Terrorists who butchered 5 rabbis
in synagogue and killed policeman
“exemplified the meaning of heroism
for the homeland…
They set out to protect it
from the defilement of the thieving occupation,
and died as Martyrs on the path of honor”

Celebrating “the first anniversary” of the Har Nof synagogue massacre, the independent Palestinian news agency Wattan dedicated a full article to praising the two terrorists who with guns and butcher’s knives slaughtered 5 Israeli worshippers, and killed a policeman last year. The article referred to the horrific killings as “the heroic operation” and an “epos written by the heroes.”

“Today is the first anniversary of the Martyrdom of… the heroes Ghassan and Uday Abu Jamal, who carried out the heroic Dir Yassin operation (i.e., Har Nof neighborhood of Jerusalem), which led to the death of 6 settlers… Ghassan and Uday Abu Jamal exemplified the meaning of heroism for the homeland… They set out to protect it from the defilement of the thieving occupation, and died as Martyrs on the path of honor. Today is the first anniversary of the epos written by the heroes.”

This praise for murder by Wattan completely contradicts the statement on Wattan’s website that “Wattan advocates for democracy, non-violence, peace and social justice.”

The report also praised another terrorist and family member of the synagogue killers, Alaa Abu Jamal, who last month deliberately drove his car into people standing at a bus stop in Jerusalem. After hitting three people, he got out of his car and started stabbing people. He killed one and injured three before he was shot and killed by a security guard. The news agency stated that “the Abu Jamal family again did not refrain from being an authentic part of the heroic honor,” because Abu Jamal “ran [Israelis] over with a car, stabbed, took revenge, and upheld the promise, which the young people of the intifada undertake every day, to continue in the path of the Martyrs until liberation.”

Last year, following the murders in the synagogue, Palestinian Media Watch exposed that PA Chairman Abbas’ advisor posted graphic images from the murder scene and called the attack “a heroic operation.” The day after the murders, Sultan Abu Al-Einein also posted a tribute to the murderers and their weapons: “Blessed be your quality weapons, the wheels of your cars, your axes and kitchen knives.”
